BEND, Ore. (AP) -- A recent survey of a bulge that covers about 100 square miles near the South Sister indicates the area is still growing, suggesting it could be another volcano in the making or a major shift of molten rock under the center of the Cascade Range.
The likely cause of the bulge is a pool of magma that, according to Deschutes National Forest geologist Larry Chitwood, is equal in size to a lake 1 mile across and 65 feet deep.
The magma lake is rising 10 feet each year, under tremendous pressure, and it deforms the Earth's surface as it expands, causing the bulge.
The bulge definition shapes are not stored in the wire file, but in an ASCII file called bulge_types which resides in your misc_data directory of your current project.
The advantage of storing these bulge shapes in a separate file outside of your wire file is that you can build a catalogue of bulge shapes, and reuse them from wire file to wire file, and even from project to project (you can copy the bulge_types file from one project directory to another).
Thus if you have several wire files that use the same bulge definition and you modify the bulge definition in the interactive package, you are actually modifying the bulge definition for all wire files that reference that bulgecode.
